Bio
AKA AKA are Hannes Bergheim and Holger Kampling, a Berlin house duo whose partnership began at a park party in 2008. Friendship and a shared working rhythm underpin the project, which developed through early releases and the creation of Burlesque Musique. Running a label gave them more control over how quickly finished tracks could reach listeners.
Their work with composer and trumpeter Thalstroem brought an additional live element, including an electronic wind instrument alongside the duo on stage. A later chapter began with WHATS POPPIN in 2023, concentrating on bass-heavy house. The two imprints reflect different periods in a partnership that has continued to develop through records and performance.
